This is the third song I created utilizing the limitations of only being able to write using my Casio. (See also "Grace Falls" and "The Lion & the Elephant.")

This song is what I imagine my mother would say to me about her life and legacy if she was completely honest with herself and she was a Queen and she was ultra melodramatic and kind of gothy. (Really, though, this is just about me and my need to break away from structures and orthodoxy and familial expectations to become a Queen in my own right.)
